Khmer People's National Liberation Front

The Khmer People's National Liberation Front (KPNLF) was an anti-communist political party in Cambodia that was active from 1979 to 1993. The party was founded in Paris, France by Son Senn, and it opposed both the Khmer Rouge regime and Vietnam, instead supporting the restoration of democracy to the country. The KPNLF operated out of bases in Thailand, leading to Vietnamese forces destroying numerous guerrilla bases and refugee camps along the Thai border with Cambodia from 1979 to 1989. In 1993, after the end of the war in Cambodia, the party formed the Buddhist Liberal Democratitc Party.
